Carnival Barby

I apologize for being M.I.A for the past week! I've been super super busy with school and other stuff. But I did finish one of my contest winners page. If you want to see the result go to blackgirlgetsfit.blogspot.com. I've been a little under the weather as well but I'm sure it will pass. But I wanted to show you this look I did last night for my YouTube and my MM account. Here's the look:

Curiosity Kills ... Sometimes

Hello Ladies! So I was  curious about black lipstick. How would it look on me??? I saw one of my followers Jonna's blog and saw how it looks on fairskinned girls. But what about dark skin? So when I went to Walmart today I checked every makeup line and the only brand that had black lipstick was Black Radiance (LOL). Anyways I tried it on and took dozens of photos. Even made a video for my YouTube Channel (comming soon by the way). Tell me what you think! I love it! Not for everyday of course but I'm sure I will figure it out.

Oh and what do you think of the new layout? Is it confusing? Bland? or did u just like it the other way? Let me know ... I do this for you! =) DONT FORGET MY CONTEST! ENDS JUNE 21!

Radiant Purple! [Pic Heavy]

Today I actually did a real post! Outfit of the Day! I decided to wear purple today. I was supposed to go out with some friends but I don't think its gonna happen. Clearly cuz i'm writing this post. Oh and I smudged my eyeshadow on one of my eyes but didn't realize it until it was too late =(.  Anyways because I'm a graphic design and CIS student , I'm never completely satisfied with my work. I always want to make it better some how. So I will be redoing this page ... yes again! But it's for the better ladies!

Ok so today I randomly made a trip to the hair store today and picked up a few things. But I also got L.A. Colors Mini Eyeshadow Pallets. I picked up 4 at $1.99 each. I really wanna do a look on the Carnival pallet. Maybe within the next few days. I apologize in advance for picture quality (colors are a little darker than shown ...

Beginner!

So my mom has been trying to keep up with my makeup skills for the past few months (lol). But she had no brushes, all her makeup was old (I mean OLD!), and she didn't know how to apply it. So I decided to get her started with a fresh new set of tools and etc. Heres what I got her:

And on another note for those of you who entered my contest, you all should have received some sort of indication that I got it. If not you may want to send it again. But you still have one more week!

Contest Dillema =(

It's been almost a week since I've opened the Blog Makeover Contest and I haven't had not one entry. Is everyone waiting for the right time or is there any concerns with the contest? Because I've seen people go crazy over a lip gloss giveaway but no one seems interested in having their blog re-designed. I honestly would be happy with just 3 entries. Let me know your concerns and why YOU haven't entered yet. Let me know ladies =)

On another note I just purchased Lauren Conrad's Book L.A. Candy.

 I'm a die hard fan of The Hills so I'm hoping I will like this book just as much. This also got me thinking about starting my own book. I thought about it before but had no idea it would be so hard to find an publisher. But i figure I will get to that when the time comes. Can't publish anything you haven't written anyways right?

So I went out and purchased a notebook to write my deepest thoughts in everyday. When I was in Kmart today I checked out some of the magazines (wondered why stores don't sell makeup magazines) and when I looked down I saw the most annoying thing ever ...

... JUSTIN BEIBER. Every magazine in the teen section had his face on it. This obsession has to be worst since The Hansons in 97! Sorry ya'll! He just annoys me!!!
